Document Summary

The test questions are not designed to trick you, but to test the depth of your understanding. That means some of the answers will look very much alike. So you need to read carefully to make sure you can tell the difference between them. You are responsible for knowing all the technical terms, major arguments, philosophical distinction and the positions of the philosophers we have studied. Below is a list of the relevant material. Do not be completely passive in your studying. Passive study is simply reading the handouts and notes. You need to actively think through what you are reading. Find ways to paraphrase what you have memorized to connect that material to some concepts you feel confident with. It is also good to come up with examples to help you understand theories and distinctions. These examples can serve as tools to help you think through difficult questions.
